Sprucing Up!

I have been wanting to spruce up the blog lately. I have been all over on those free template/background sites and just couldn't find anything that I liked. So I started clicking through the blogger templates they have available and saw the all white and really liked it. Nice and simple, just what I was looking for. Then I asked Jared to make me a header. Don't you like what he did?! It took him about 30 minutes or so and I just love it. And I have been ready to change the name. The Road Ahead was perfect for the start of this blog. I was looking forward, anticipating what was to come. As Jared and I were sitting there thinking of a new name, we knew it was going to be called The Three Of Us. It was the little saying afterward I wasn't so sure of. We came up with a few great lines and then I said "living in the moment". We both said "oh, that's good". It wasn't until we left there and were walking around a park that I was thinking about that little saying. I said "Jared, that is actually so fitting, the blog was called The Road Ahead while we were getting ready to move and then getting adjusted to Nashville. And now it say's Living in The Moment. We're here, we're ready for whatever God has for us. It's so exciting and sometime's scary but I wouldn't have it any other way." It has been so fun to have a blog to post pictures and keep in touch with everyone. I didn't think I would ever be comfortable writing something and then putting it on the web for people to read. But I am and so happy that we decided to do so.

I LOVE this precious header! Jared is so great at those things. . .and since he's your hubby you can get new ones all the time! I keep wanting to have someone make me a personalized header, but I know I'll get tired of it after a few weeks and want a new one!

Love you,
Bran

I was wondering about that new name. I didn't recognize it in my google reader.
I like the new look.

Hey Jen-I love the new name and I love reading your blog! It's so encouraging to read about your journey and how wonderful you have adjusted to the move and trusted in Jesus! I pray if Jesus calls us to someplace else that I would do as well as you! Keep reaching for the SON!
